Hyperion Profitability and Cost Managment : Questionnaire

Hi All,
Is there any standard questionnaire available that we need to ask from our clients for going ahead with Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management?
Regards,
Sugi

Here are a few questions I could think of:
- What are the stages of Cost Flow for certain Product?
- What is the costing methodology being used?
- How are the Drivers to define Cost?
- What are the Cost Assignment Rule across Stages.
Please correct/add questions or your valuable inputs as per your experience. Any pointers to the same will also be helpful.
Thanks,
Sugi

  • Cost Manager and tax

    We've got a new requirement to distribute our non recoverable tax amongst our relevant project codes.  It's fine when we're using requisitions to charge to schemes, but when we don't have sales orders and requisitions because the stock has been picked on demand rather than request then we only record the issue as a material transaction - and cost manager doesn't have a tax code to use for charging to the project code.
    We're currently defaulting tax codes in on a ship to location level.  If we change to an item level, will cost manager create a second tax line to go to projects (same account code but different source)?  If it won't, is there a way of configuring Cost Manager to generate tax?
    Thanks

  • Cost transfer posting within Training and event management

    Dear experts!
    Now, I'm getting some issues about transfer posting in Training and event management.
    - The first, I create business event.
    - Second, I posted cost of business event to CO.
    when I posted to CO, I only want to give cost of business event to one cost center. But the system require I have two cost center:
              + Sender cost center
              + Receive cost center.
    Really, I want to post cost of business event to Receive cost center.
    How do I have to do?
    Help me, Please!
    Best regards, Huy

    Hi huy daongoc ,
    you need to find out from the FICO guys. 
    If the sender cost center and the receiver cost center is same.  then give both records.  They will help you out.
    I think Sender cost center means the cost center under which the training is organised.
    Receiving cost center means the persons who are all receiving the training, those persons cost center.

  • Cost Items in training and event management

    What is the importance of Cost Items in training and events? Can a Core Team Member edit the proposed amounts of Cost Items? How is a cost item relevant to Training and Events?
    Points assured!
    Thank you,
    Nivedita.

    Hi,
    Training and Event Management uses cost items to determine and represent the costs incurred by business events. Cost items are also required when you want to transfer event costs to Cost Accounting, for internal activity allocation for instructors, and for determining a price proposal.
    You store cost items for resources, resource types, business events, and business event types.
    This cost move to relevant for cost centre.
    Like eg: External instructor fee, Resources cost.manual fee, depreciation fee.
    Good luck

  • VPRS cost and batch management

    Hi Gurus,
    Is there any link between the cost and batch management? Currently users has posted a billing document and the cost is 0. The VPRS value in the SO is correctly but it is not brought to the billing document.
    We have tested and it seems that this is because the batch management checkbox is not checked in material master, so the VPRS is not generated in billing.
    Please advise. Thanks.
    Regards,
    FY

    Hi Javier,
    what do you do with the VPRS in your calculation- system ?
    If you need i, you delete the requirement 004 in your calculation -system.
    on the other hand, you can change TANN to komp-evrwr (price determination on the item category) is  'X'. Then you have to add an 100% rabate for TANN and the resukt will be free good.

    I have no clue about recovering the info, but when you say you save you should always use Save As. That clears unneeded info from the file. With the file size you have, that may be an important need.

    what is (sdlc) software developement life cycle management in hyperion esssbase and planning ?

    SDLC is a high-level concept (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_development_life_cycle) not a feature of a particular software package, so I'm really not sure what you're asking.
    If you're asking about the somewhat related topic of moving changes through environments, look at About Lifecycle Management.

  • Vehicle total consumption and cost report - Fleet Management

    Dear All,
    I have created a Fleet object having multiple fuels i.e. Gasoline and CNG and entered transactional data using IFCU transaction. My client need to know how much Gasoline and CNG was consumed for the Fleet Object and cost incurred for the fuel consumption. In MCIZ report it shows the total fuel consumption counter reading for the vehicle regardless of different fuel types.
    Is there any standard report to view the said information?
    Thanks & Regards,

    The following method may work for you
    Divide the distance by the litres used to get the km/litre
    Convert the km/litre to L/100 km i.e. divide 100 by km per litre
    Convert km/litre to miles per gallon i.e. multiply km/litre by 2.825
    Fuel conversion formula table
    To convert Formula to use
    km per litre to litres per 100 km divide 100 by km per litre
    km per litre to miles per gallon multiply km per litre by 2.825
    litres per 100km to miles per gallon divide 282.5 by litres per 100km
    miles per gallon to litres per 100km divide 282.5 by miles per gallon
    litres per 100km to km per litre divide 100 by litres per 100 km
    miles per gallon to km per litre multiply miles per gallon by 0.354
    km to miles multiply km by .62137
    miles to km multiply miles by 1.6093

  • Functionality of Profit Center and Cost Center

    Hi,
    I am unable to understand the functionality of Profit center and cost center, I know that cost center represents area within an organization for which you will like to see the expenses for a particular time period. for example in an organisation we have three cos centers Accounts, HR and Admin. whenever you post an accounting document in FI you will specify the cost center to which the expense relates. but in some cases when you post an expense and give the relative cost center the profit center is also driven by the system. why is this behavior? i mean i have posted an expense not an income then why is system driving the profit center as well?
    Profit centers are used if you want to see the profit of different area of your organisation. in what kind of postings we use profit center? and if we could use profit center to draw income and loss for a specific area why do we need segment reporting? and what is the difference between Segment and Business area. what i understood from their definition is that they are both same and use for same purpose.
    I am totally lost in these concepts. please some one help me out with an example. i am stuck at this point. some one please clarify my concept of Profit Center, Cost Center, Segments and business area please.

    Hi,
    Cost center & Profit Center are organizational units   within the enterprise structure , created for better internal control.
    As the name suggests Cost Center  is  the lowest level  of the organizational unit representing a defined location of cost incurrence or otherwise to which you can meaningfully assign the cost(both direct & Indirect).
    Profit Center is an organizational unit  in accounting  ,where management would require to see the profitability & fix the responsibility. It may be each plant/division of the company .
    If you consider the Plant is the Profit center, you can take the various deptts in the Plant as cost centers. you can draw a balance sheet & profit & loss account statement at profit center level but this will be for your internal use.From this you can know the ROI on particular area. Profit centers are assigned inside the cost center so when you update cost center, profit centers are updated automatically.
    Where as Segments are used for legal reporting of your accounting standard as per IFRS. Both Business Area & Segments are more or less same with some technical difference.
    Business area  is a free organizational unit. It can be derived through cost center or can be entered manually.
    But segment is a dependent organizational unit. It is defined & attached inside the  profit center master data. It can’t be entered manually.
    SAP suggest to use the Segment concept.
    Thanks & regards

  • TEM and FI/CO   (Training and Event Management)

    Hi All,
    I wish to track actual cost per event in PE (TEM - Training and Event Management).  Was considering having a Internal order per Instance of event. Have any Idea on how to set up something like this?
    Appreciate all ideas,
    LB

    Hi Dean,
    using internal orders you have to consider that sending and receiving cost center have to in the same company code.
    If you do not want to distribute the costs to FI/CO but only report them, you can use the cost items provided by TEM. We have set up something similar for our plants in South Europe.
    We have created some cost items and fill them manually with the training costs. Additionally we have created a report that evaluated this costs and combines them with the employee costs (derived from salary).
    Best regards
